it's. It's frustrating for me, from my perspective, that it's not, it's not people's fault, but I think we generally have a very superficial understanding how geopolitics works. And when they throw out terms like, you know, this country is the biggest state sponsor of terrorism. And you know, sometimes at one day it's, it's, it's Qatar, one day it's Iran. And they're both equally. We're using the biggest or the worst a little bit too hyperbolically, even though I agree with it. So I look at it this way. We, we have this problem in spades in Canada. People need to understand how Iran operates and it's quite complex, but how they operate in the West. And I think this is where people get lost in the nuance. And oh, what I like about you, Owen, with all your posts, you're very sensitive to highlighting the nuance of situations. And sometimes things aren't so black and white. There's a lot of gray area. A perfect example, if you want to understand how Iran operates around the world and in the United States and in Canada, is to look at the. There's a documentary on Netflix called Nisman the Prosecutor, the President and the Spy. And it's about the AMIA attack in Argentina in the 1990s. I think it was 92 or 94, something like that. And it shows, I mean, it shows the event of amia and then the prosecutor who was killed, like Jeffrey Epstein and under spurious circumstances, and the President Kushner, the far leftist, was involved in Hezbollah. That was a Hezbollah attack. They do. And I'm encouraging everybody to watch this as an example. And I'm going to just get to what's happening today as an example of why politicians always say they're such a great sponsor of terrorism and why they're so dangerous. In this particular case, what this documentary missed, and this is the key, this is very, very important, is, and it comes to today, that prior to the bombing in Argentina, which was Hezbollah, which is Iran, that's their proxy, that's Iranian money. The president at that time was Carlos Menem. And Carlos Menem was elected on a leftist platform and he was president from 89 to 99. However, once he was elected, he went economically right wing. Okay? That's that period of time where inflation was under control and Argentina started to recover because they abandoned all the leftism that they used to get elected. That was their Minister of the Economy, Domingo Caballo, or I think in Argentinian Spanish they say Caballo. Anyways, his wife was key in Carlos Menem getting elected. She had connections to lots of money around the world. She happened to be a Syrian, pro Islamist, lefty. So this is another example of foreign money. And it's been going on for a long time that's how he got elected, which is why she divorced him two years after he got elected and took a U turn and went a right wing economically. So the retaliations started from Hezbollah when his son Carlos Menem Jr. Mysteriously died in a helicopter crash. That was very suspicious. Much like the five people who were the only witnesses of Bukele's national security advisor who was tortured and murdered under custody, they too died in a suspicious helicopter. And ties to the same sort of international regimes. So they're very careful and they're very subversive. And this is what led to the AMIA bombing. Why? Because once the leftist government of Menem got elected, once you get into power, you start to get access to intel from all over the world, from embassies all over the world. Now you're in the seat. Now you get to see what's actually going on behind the scenes. And apparently one of the things that Israel does for many Western nations is when there is Iran or Hezbollah activity and they're building infrastructure in a country, they contact that country's intel services to say, hey, these are the bad guys on the ground. We suggest you do something about it. And we know because they're constantly attacking us in Israel as well. You do what you want with it. And that apparently is what caused them take a right turn. They realized how bad the degrees of political entryism was into Argentina. And because they used Israeli information that was collected in Syria, that is why they bombed the ami. The. That is why the AMIA bombing occurred. Now, from there, go watch the documentary. It will give you a clear eye as to why they're so dangerous. Because these people get elected into governments in our countries. And in the case of the AMIA bombing, there was a think tank out of Washington D.C. that worked and collaborated with Argentina and Alberta Nisman, who basically got Kushner and the leftists and Hezbollah all work. He had them nailed. He was going to nail them to the wall in his testimony. And the night before he happened to get killed, or as they say, he committed suicide. Sounds familiar. And that think tank that was working with the US government, trying to help Argentina purge this Hezbollah entryism from within their government, was an organization that's still active today called fdd. And it was founded by a Christian Zionist named Richard Carlson. Yes, Tucker Carlson's father. So much of what goes on in the world, it's not only is it so connected, but it lends itself so much to what Scott always said. If you know the news, you don't know anything. If you know who is the news. Now you understand how the pieces fit together. And this is a perfect example. And in Canada's case right now, luckily, we just got rid of, in, I think, the last election cycle, we had a member of Parliament named Majid Johari. Majid Johari. We knew Canadian intel, law enforcement, everybody knew was Iranian irgc, because they built enough infrastructure within Canada, put a ton of money to get this guy elected into the Canadian government. Because once you get elected, like I said before now, you get access to classified information. Sometimes, depending on what committee you're in, you get access to what's going on with that country and you can leak it back home. And this is why in the case of Canada, when President Stephen Harper was Prime minister, he closed the Iranian embassy. Why Iranian embassies around the world are used as central collection agencies for intel, but to harass and extort members of the Iranian diaspora all over the world. And the Chinese do this, too. I explained this once about AI Weiwei. What they'll do is they'll monitor the Iranian community in the United States, in California, and say, you get out of line. We know your uncle, you know, he owns the bakery in Tehran. Why don't we just go torture him for a few months? This is why it's so dangerous to have those people in the Western governments to give them power through this, this device of political entryism that they use. So we get this idea that they're a big funder of terrorism, a state sponsor of terrorism, and they're so dangerous, we always think, yeah, bombs are going off. That's part of it. But it's more the subversive elements within the country gathering intel, learning technology, finding about drone programs and sending it back to the countries who loudly chant the Death to America. That's why I call them the Death to America people. And it's astonishing that people want to run cover for Death to America people and then claim that they're America first. It's very frustrating.
